Blockhead v0.47.0 Alpha

P2P | 02 February 2026 | 97 MB

This new DAW is unlike many others you may have seen on the market – BlockHead is a work-in-progress experimental audio production program intended for music making and sound design. It’s got some unique features, innovative modes of interaction and it records everything you do! Alpha builds of Blockhead are available for Windows, macOS and Linux.

New Feature: “Quick Find”
•Press ENTER to open a search box to search for things.
•Press Ctrl+N to select the next item in the search results and Ctrl+P to select the previous. Or you can use the arrow keys.

You can currently search for:
•Named blocks
•Labelled block instances
•Samples currently loaded in the project
•Blink plugins (effects, samplers and synths)
•CLAP plugins (but selecting them doesn’t currently do anything)

Update Notes v0.47.0 Alpha:
Removed: All CLAP plugin support has been removed (temporarily.) This was added too early in development and was causing too many headaches and roadblocks at both the technical and design levels. 3rd-party plugin support will return some day in some other form.
Removed: “Convert to meta block” and “Convert to tempo guide” menu options were removed. (Replaced with the new generic block conversion feature detailed below.)
Feature: Script blocks.
Nerds may now create a script block to do custom audio processing in Lua.
Here is the current documentation for the scripting API:

Feature: Block instances can now be converted from any type to any other type
Feature: Blink plugin browser was added
Update: Better multithreading
Update: Better UI for setting project defaults And LOTS of bug fixes
